      Wouldn't it have been male ones that diverged from the hermaphroditic model first? Think there are some slugs that are only hermaphroditic and male, but I've never heard of hermaphroditic and female.

        afaik parthenogenesis is not hermaphroditism and is a strong indicator that the female sex existed first
